I have been wanting to experiment with crescent rolls. I have seen many food bloggers creating fabulous recipes for appetizers. So what the hella was I waiting for?! Actually, I was waiting on my Amazon order for a Silicone Baking Mat. I was spending so much on parchment papers and aluminum foils that made me resort to going to the cheap a$$ Dollar Stores. Oh TOOTz! I know I’m late on the baking game but let me tell you that buying a Silicone Baking Mat was a budget life saver!
Chick in a Blanket
Anyway while I was doing groceries at Trader Joe’s, I grabbed one can of crescent rolls. It was just to experiment with some fake chicken strips that I had in the freezer. My chicks were getting lonely and needed a blanket to keep them warm. LOL! I still had a few Sweet Baby Bell Peppers left over and would taste damn good sauteed with garlic and onion bits.
I use a lot of vegan and vegetarian items in my recipes. You can substitute a few items with this recipe. If you’re a meat eating glutton, use real chicken strips; use regular butter instead of vegan butter; and if you don’t like Sweet Baby Bell Peppers like me but eat them anyway, use your favorite vegetable. But try making my recipe for once! winks
